Kulajew,
I never use polygon pads and therefore I am not an expert but I can
tell you that there are reported problems with polygon pad rotations (P99SE
I assume). Abd-ul Rahman is the expert on this topic as I recall. Solution,
do not use rotated polygon pads, possibly don't use polygon pads period.
Hey Abd-ul Rahman, are you out there today? Kulajew needs your
expertise on this topic!
Sincerely,
Brad Velander.

> Hello all.
